Oh I have to say something here. Tamizh has a very beautiful phonetic character which I believe not understanding the language makes it easier to appreciate (your entire focus is on the phonetics rather than the meanings). I love listening to Tamizh songs a) for the melody b) for the phonetic richness of the language.
And yes I am a Bengali too. I would urge all those who do not understand the language to listen to the words a little more attentively. Trust me, it's really beautiful even if you don't understand..not something you would want to miss out on :) Happy listening and thanks to ARR for broadening our horizons!! --- In [email protected], Indmov Buff <indmovb...@...> wrote: > > Exactly!
